A Serene Lakefront Retreat is the Highest-Priced Residential Home Sale in Dune Acres, Indiana

92 West Road in Dune Acres, Indiana, has recently broken records as the highest-priced residential home sale in the area. The property was represented by Lesley Sweeney, Broker Associate of Encore Sotheby’s International Realty, and has sold for $2,000,000. The 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom mid-century modern residence, with 3,630 square feet on 0.8 acres, offers 130 feet of prime beachfront along Lake Michigan. Situated just steps from the Indiana Dunes National Park, this property combines the ultimate in privacy and recreation.

“It was a privilege to represent my clients in the sale of this remarkable property, given the care and pride they had for this home which had been in their family since it was built in 1959,” Sweeney said. The original owners played an integral part in leading efforts to protect Indiana’s spectacular natural dunes in the 1960s.

With breathtaking waterfront views and the Chicago skyline in the distance, or the option for aquatic recreation, this retreat caters to a lakefront lifestyle. The residence’s layout is perfect for large gatherings or weekend getaways, featuring formal and casual living spaces, a screened-in porch, and a dedicated office. Its prime location provides easy access to hiking trails, dune exploration, and a peaceful lakeside lifestyle, all within an hour’s commute from downtown Chicago.

This record-breaking sale underscores the allure of lakefront living and a desire for a harmonious blend of luxury, relaxation, and natural beauty in the northwestern region of Indiana.
